MiG-23UB in aviation history:

The MiG-23UB was a two-seat combat trainer variant of the classic MiG-23, designed in the Soviet Union. The name "Flogger C" according to the NATO reporting name refers specifically to this variant. The MiG-23UB served as a transition aircraft for pilots switching to more advanced fighters, while also enabling the performance of combat and training missions. These aircraft were widely used not only by the USSR Air Force but also by other Warsaw Pact countries, including Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Bulgaria.

The MiG-23UB entered service in the mid-1970s and was operated until the end of the Cold War and the first years thereafter. It participated in maneuvers, exercises, and the routine training of fighter pilots.
